Is fish on the menu? If not, it probably should be. This Sunday, Mary Berg returns with a new episode of Mary Makes It Easy, tackling seafood with her signature blend of charm and achievable cooking. Forget the fancy restaurants and intimidating techniques—Berg’s here to prove that delicious fish dishes can be conquered in your own kitchen.
“When You Fish Upon a Star” centers on four distinct fish preparations, each designed to elevate your culinary game without requiring a culinary degree. First up, a pub classic gets the Berg treatment: Fish and Chips. Say goodbye to soggy batter and hello to crispy perfection with Mary’s home-cooking tips. For those seeking a touch of elegance, Tuna Tartare with avocado and lime sesame dressing provides a refreshing, light, and flavorful option.
The seafood adventure continues as Berg adds a French twist with Salmon en Papillote, infusing the classic dish with a vibrant coconut curry flavor. And for fans of traditional flavors, Pan-fried Pickerel Meunière, served with a classic brown butter lemon sauce, rounds out the episode’s offerings.
Whether you’re a seasoned seafood chef or just dipping your toes into the culinary waters, “When You Fish Upon a Star” aims to expand your repertoire. Tune in for a mix of familiar comfort food and globally-inspired dishes, all presented with Berg’s approachable style. It’s fish, but easy.
Mary Makes It Easy airs Sundays at 12 p.m. on Food Network.
